Dozens of fans of Cory Monteith have showed up to the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel, where the actor was found dead on Saturday, to pay their respects to the 31-year-old.
Fans have dropped off flowers, cards, teddy bears, and letters.
One of the people dropping off flowers was Monteith’s cousin Richard.
He was too upset to talk for long, but did stop for a few moments before leaving saying he last saw Cory just a couple of months ago.
Monteith, best known for his work on the hit TV show Glee, was found dead on Saturday in his room on the 21st floor.
It is not known why he was in town, but he spent the night with friends before heading back to his hotel room alone early Saturday morning. When he failed to check out on time, staff went up to his room and found him dead.
No foul play is suspected, but toxicology tests and an autopsy will be performed today. However, the coroners’ service says it may take several days before results are in from the toxicology tests.
